Millar, 88, a World War II veteran of the Navy, died on March 28. He was also a city Department of Transportation worker, and was a past president of the AARP.

Current North Shore Dems president Michael Arvanites called Millar “an old school politician” who was “all class.”

“He helped [late chairman] Jim Smith and the Democratic Party on Staten Island be inclusive to veterans, seniors and unions,” Arvanties said. “He will be missed. They don’t make them like Joe Millar anymore.”
